[b]p1.[/b] $2011$ distinct points are arranged along the perimeter of a circle. We choose without replacement four points $P$, $Q$, $R$, $S$. What is the probability that no two of the segments $P Q$, $QR$, $RS$, $SP$ intersect (disregarding the endpoints)?
[b]p2.[/b] In Soviet Russia, all phone numbers are between three and six digits and contain only the digits $1$, $2$, and $3$. No phone number may be the prefix of another phone number, so, for example, we cannot have the phone numbers $123$ and $12332$. If the Soviet bureaucracy has preassigned $10$ phone numbers of length $3$, $20$ numbers of length $4$, and $77$ phone numbers of length $6$, what is the maximum number of phone numbers of length $5$ that the authorities can allocate?
[b]p3.[/b] The sequence $\{a_n\}_{n\ge 1}$ is defined as follows: we have $a_1 = 1$, $a_2 = 0$, and for $n \ge 3$ we have $$a_n = \frac12 \sum\limits_{\substack{1\le i,j\\ i+j+k=n}} a_ia_ja_k.$$

2014 NIMO Problems, 3
The numbers $1,2,\dots,10$ are written on a board. Every minute, one can select three numbers $a$, $b$, $c$ on the board, erase them, and write $\sqrt{a^2+b^2+c^2}$ in their place. This process continues until no more numbers can be erased. What is the largest possible number that can remain on the board at this point?

Given a triangle $ABC$. Let $O$ be the circumcenter of this triangle $ABC$. Let $H$, $K$, $L$ be the feet of the altitudes of triangle $ABC$ from the vertices $A$, $B$, $C$, respectively. Denote by $A_{0}$, $B_{0}$, $C_{0}$ the midpoints of these altitudes $AH$, $BK$, $CL$, respectively. The incircle of triangle $ABC$ has center $I$ and touches the sides $BC$, $CA$, $AB$ at the points $D$, $E$, $F$, respectively. Prove that the four lines $A_{0}D$, $B_{0}E$, $C_{0}F$ and $OI$ are concurrent. (When the point $O$ concides with $I$, we consider the line $OI$ as an arbitrary line passing through $O$.)

An $m \times n$ rectangle is tiled with $\frac{mn}{2}$ $1 \times 2$ dominoes. The tiling is such that whenever the rectangle is partitioned into two smaller rectangles, there exists a domino that is part of the interior of both rectangles. Given $mn > 2$, what is the minimum possible value of $mn$?
For instance, the following tiling of a $4 \times 3$ rectangle doesn’t work because we can partition along the line shown, but that doesn’t necessarily mean other $4 \times 3$ tilings don’t work.

Let $S$ be the set $\{1, 2, ..., 10\}$. Let $A$ be a subset of $S$.
We arrange the elements of $A$ in increasing order, that is, $A = \{a_1, a_2, ...., a_k\}$ with $a_1 < a_2 < ... < a_k$.
Define [i]WSUM [/i] for this subset as $3(a_1 + a_3 +..) + 2(a_2 + a_4 +...)$ where the first term contains the odd numbered terms and the second the even numbered terms.
(For example, if $A = \{2, 5, 7, 8\}$, [i]WSUM [/i] is $3(2 + 7) + 2(5 + 8)$.)
Find the sum of [i]WSUMs[/i] over all the subsets of S.
(Assume that WSUM for the null set is $0$.)

Ali Baba and the $40$ thieves want to cross Bosporus strait. They made a line so that any two people standing next to each other are friends. Ali Baba is the first, he is also a friend with the thief next to his neighbour. There is a single
boat that can carry $2$ or $3$ people and these people must be friends. Can Ali Baba and the $40$ thieves always cross the strait if a single person cannot sail?
2021 XVII International Zhautykov Olympiad, #5
On a party with $99$ guests, hosts Ann and Bob play a game (the hosts are not regarded as guests). There are $99$ chairs arranged in a circle; initially, all guests hang around those chairs. The hosts take turns alternately. By a turn, a host orders any standing guest to sit on an unoccupied chair $c$. If some chair adjacent to $c$ is already occupied, the same host orders one guest on such chair to stand up (if both chairs adjacent to $c$ are occupied, the host chooses exactly one of them). All orders are carried out immediately. Ann makes the first move; her goal is to fulfill, after some move of hers, that at least $k$ chairs are occupied. Determine the largest $k$ for which Ann can reach the goal, regardless of Bob's play.
